Well, I am. On HPC nx6325 the status of AC adapter after the restore is not reported correctly if hibernation is done without the ACPI hooks (eg. if you hibernate with the AC connected and then disconnect it and resume, it will still be reported as connected until you plug/unplug it). There are more machines that behave similarly, AFAICT.
